Macworld 2012 has come and gone, hear our experiences, how well Blindfolded! went, and hear interviews of vendors on the show floor. Avatron with Air Display on iOS in iTunes, Air Display in the Mac App Store, Air Sharing for iPhone in iTunes, Air Sharing universal for iPhone & iPad in iTunes, and Print Sharing in iTunes. Nite Ize brings us Gear Ties at REI, iPhone Connect Case Niteize.com Connect Case and Connect Case accessories: NiteIze.com Connect Case Accessories. Parat Solutions demonstrates the ParaSync to charge and sync 10 iPads (also models for 20 iPhones/iPods) at Paratsolutions.com. Powis iCase with 9 different positions at powiscase.com. The NosillaCastaways party was lots of fun at Macworld | iWorld, check out the photos on flickr.com/photos/nosillacast/sets/72157629089333159/ and Mark Pouley's shots of just the Google Hangout we did with people who couldn't come at flickr.com/photos/switchermark/sets/72157629087853459/. In Chit Chat Across the Pond Bart tells us about a dreadful flaw in WPS on most wifi routers (not in Apple Airports luckily). To look up your router to find out if it's got the flaw and if turning off WPS will actually help, go to https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=0Ags-JmeLMFP2dFp2dkhJZGIxTTFkdFpEUDNSSHZEN3c. If yours has the flaw and you want to be daring, install a non-standard router OS like the ones listed here: wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wireless_router_firmware_projects. After that Bart lightens things up with his tutorial on how to take photographs of stars without fancy kit: bartb.ie/blog/?p=2226.
